lol no its not bickering but it will get to it, If the disagreements carry on ... some people dont know when to quit. :)

hmmm by sounds of it your leaning towards wanting a community tank therefor id suggest tetra's as an attraction, and livebearers for your breeding side. i.e. guppys, mollys, platies, swordtails all of which is pretty much male and female then fry ... no matter what fish its always a pleasure to...

Well that is your opinion if the person wants to find out him/herself leave it down to them in his/her mind they have had two different stories now the person must decide what to follow, to save any bickering ...

When Years ago I had my tank in my room maybe about 12 or so ... I just put a fish in with no acclimatising but that was of course without dad watching or I would of got a telling off ... lol. Didn't effect the fish in anyway :) best not to though ... :D

Just as I thought, well as I mentioned what about rams in my community tank ? They are of/smaller then my current fish :)

Maybe you could use it as a breeding tank, you can get much pleasure out of it. Im taking it you have about 20-25 litres ? you could have about 3 cape lopez lyretail Killifish not are they just beautiful to watch but also easy to breed. Just a thought mind. :)

It could be a possibility considering kribs live at the bottom - middle and corys live at bottom...

I have 1 male siamese and 2 female I dont have any problems in pecking orders. not everything has the same temperament same goes as people. 1 fish would kill everything 1 wouldnt ...

Generally keep them in the bag floating on top for 20-30 minutes, I wouldn't add the shop water to your tank. disease does travel so its best to net the fish out the bag :)

Not a bad size :) You can buy all the above at your local fish shop ... Also a website if you want to shop online: http://www.hagen.com/uk/aquatic/sub_catego...&SUBCAT=124 Edit: http://www.seapets.co.uk/static-content/pa...its-search.html Extra link may also be handy :D

General question as im quite clueless on cichlids, apart from breeding kribensis in a 6ftx2ftx2ft with help of a dad ... I will now be recieving a new tank, Size: 2ft long, 1ft heigh, 8 inches wide. Due to a kind member of my local freecycle. My question is: Would a pair of kribensis and rams co...

As I stated if not breeding and ideally they wont be in a community tank. instead of 1 female buy at least 2 females.

It doesnt really matter on make of tank as nowadays, Everything has a standard trading mark on the tank to prove it is fit for sale, no matter how cheap, The glass won't just crack, they have been tested to the standard. You will find the size tank you want will be easily supported by the joists...

My cousin who had Kribensis bred in his tank, One day he was cleaning out his filter to find 15 large Kribensis living ... They survived due to air circulation and a nest full of bloodworms in there. So definately check out your tank.

Perhaps some Zebra Danio's a very hardy fish and quite an attractive fish.
